Hopefully that solves the issue. Hope to see the Cordoba up and running again really soon. Thanks for making the video a little longer brother. Some of us actually enjoy watching👊👍💯
hi there , very nice video , i want to ask how to check my old lifters if its bad or OK, i used engine priming tool and didn't get oil on on the rocker arm , what you think ( i have a new oil pump, rocker and push rod)
Way to go Jason for getting right into it An sticking with it as to figuring out what it was An showing us all those checks that we all suggested ,that was good of you to take the time to show us 👍.. an hopefully you got it this time !! Can be discouraging for sure but some of these new parts today jus not made like they were back in the day .. !! I jus actually looked back a cpl videos as I recall mentioning bad lifters to you as a lot of guys having bad batches of new lifters lately an indeed I did say bad lifters to which in return you replied by saying you figured bad lifters too !! Soo yup yup we called it Jason lol 👍
wish you would have shown testing some of the other lifters, you said you might pull a few others, did they react different when you put the magnet on the other ones?
Yeah your right I baught 1990 nissan altima the engine was half half smoking very poor when I flushed engine with diesel 2 times and flush oil 5 times the engine became new and i used for 15 years without any engine job.......
Bearings have a very deep, low tone to them when they wear and lifters tick, or clack. More high pitched. But yes send me the video on my facebook or instgram.
@@OldeCarrGuy my 350 seems to be doing the same noise, I'm gonna look into doing what you did tonyours but my luck I'll probably have to replace cam and all lifters lol
Only things that cause rocker and pushed damage is valve train resistance, valve-piston clearances, lash too tight, or coil bind on valve spring. Causes can be collapsed lifter adjusted too tight, improper cam timing, or cam too big for valve spring travel. Possibly over revving with valve springs too weak for the RPM. Studs pulling etc will never break a rocker or pushrod. If all you did was replace lifter , you will have the same problem again in the future. A lifter stuck at the top should only cause some possible valve float, won't cause broken parts on a properly set up engine.
You are probably right on the lash to tight. In a previous video, I readjusted the valves to almost 1/2 a turn of pre-load rather than 3/4. Seems to have helped.
@@OldeCarrGuy I typically go a quarter turn after ticking stops, but tight lash should cause valve float / leakage before breaking or bending anything, but might have been just enough to flex the rocker with piston contact at higher Rpm.
the older engines needs oil with zinc in it i use diesel 15w-40 with a bottle of stp oil treatment flat lifters needs zinc in the oil they lowered the zinc in oil back in the 90's sometime the epa claims zinc messes with a cat converter more government bs i think lol
Hi Terry. I use 1540 as well but I had started with 1030 and a bottle of zinc additive. But in the end it was used lifters and pushrods that bit me. Replace them all with new and no problems since! Thanks for watching
So was this the censored version?? After the 3rd stall I'm sure the language got more adult lol and how many beers does it take to adjust valve lash lol

I hope so too! I actually have a new carb on order. Should be here laste this week or early next!
jason, you should do what your comfortable doing. Glad that you finally got that thing licked. boy he sounds good,
Let's hope it stays that way!

It’s common to have an oil plug not in place somewhere. That would keep you from building pressure.

Thanks Darren. Believe it or not i do listen to the suggestion in the comments. Thanks for always watching!

Glad Dale is back. Idk if he has a video specifically on an edlebrock carburetor but a TH-camr named Thunderhead289 is really good with carburetors.
I do follow him and have taken some of his advice! Thanks for pointing me his way though!
Glad it was only lifters and a push rod and not the cam. Good work.
Thanks bud. Me too! lol
It sounds like that is the problem that I have with my 83 trans am, I will be looking at the pushrods soon. Great video.
Thanks Luis
Trim turned out amazing
Thanks Bud!
happy to see that is just a lifter! hope it can stay that way to enjoy!
I hope so too! Thanks Sly!
Going through similar issue. All new lists didn't fix the tick. Might have to check the lifters again
It certainly wasn’t a fun time but one sure you’ll get it!
Truck is looking very nice.👍
Thanks 👍
Victory!
Victory indeed!
Good job
Thanks
Great Video bud !!!
Glad you enjoyed
Great job, he's running great!
Thanks Man. Me too!
When Jason says "what the heck", you know he's pissed off.
Fricken right man!
What do I do if my lifters are stuck? I can't get them out. They do move a bit up and down but they won't completely come out.
You may end up having to pull your camshaft and push them down through. But you could be into more than you bargained for if you aren't careful!
@@OldeCarrGuy I haven't tried the slide hammer yet.
Dale sounds happy now
And working quite well.
He sounds alot better now
Much better
Sorry you had to deal with this. Hope it got solved.
So far so good!
NOTIFICATION GANG!!!
Nice to see you using the cut-out valve cover!
Always! Thanks for always watching!
If you flush your engine with diesel gasoline that make your engine interior like new
Olde carr Guy also make a video of flushing engine with diesel
Yeah your right
I baught 1990 nissan altima the engine was half half smoking very poor when I flushed engine with diesel 2 times and flush oil 5 times the engine became new and i used for 15 years without any engine job.......
Done that before. Not necessary on this engine as it is already like new inside.
@@OldeCarrGuy ☺good
Helped me out a lot thanks Brother💯
Glad it helped
Given er the pork and beans 👍
Yeah buddy!
Hey could I send you a video to you so you could listen to the noise my motor is making? It sounds a lot like lifter tap I’m hoping it’s not a bearing
Bearings have a very deep, low tone to them when they wear and lifters tick, or clack. More high pitched. But yes send me the video on my facebook or instgram.
nice vid my man.....keep it up!
Appreciate it!
Did you replace just the 2 lifters?
Yes. Just the 2 that the rockers damaged.
@@OldeCarrGuy my 350 seems to be doing the same noise, I'm gonna look into doing what you did tonyours but my luck I'll probably have to replace cam and all lifters lol
If you have any questions, hit me up on IG
Do you know what camshaft you're running in that truck?
Only things that cause rocker and pushed damage is valve train resistance, valve-piston clearances, lash too tight, or coil bind on valve spring.

Improper ignition timing too much vacuum advance
the older engines needs oil with zinc in it i use diesel 15w-40 with a bottle of stp oil treatment flat lifters needs zinc in the oil

@@OldeCarrGuy lol
Not good on the lifters
Glad I bought 2.
